The Shop

On June 15th 2014 The Smallest House, a tea ceramics boutique with specialities from Dutch soil, opened its doors.

The Smallest House offers you on a surface of only 9m2 (≈ 96 ft2) a variety of fresh loose teas, pre-packaged tea, tea accessories and tea sets. We also have a wonderful assortment of delicacies as chocolate, honey, nougat, fudge and liqueur. Naturally, our items are also available soon through our webshop .

The Tearoom

On the second floor we have recently launched a new surprise: the smallest tearoom in Amsterdam!

In a sphere of privacy and quietness up to five people can enjoy, among others, breakfast or lunch, a modest Thé Gourmand, an Afternoon Tea, a special menu around the holidays or a tea course. All arrangements are based on one or more specialty teas from the shop and pastry from our own kitchen. Obviously of high quality.

The House

Right in the historical heart of Amsterdam, is where The Smallest House is situated. With its 2.02 meters (6 feet 7 inches) wide and 5 meters (16 feet 4 inches) deep, this little building is actually the smallest self-contained house that can be found in the capital. The house, which dates from about 1738, is located in the Oude Hoogstraat 22, right next to the East India House and the gate to the Walloons Church.
